I'm currently 200 lbs, 5'11", with 14% body fat, aiming to compete in classic physique. 11 years ago, I reached 235 lbs at the same body fat using 850 mg of testosterone, 600mg masteron and it ended badly once I added in masteron with full blown cystic acne that took 3 years to resolve.
At 35, I'm planning to gradually increase my testosterone dosage, starting at 160 mg with 500 IU of hCG weekly, to control side effects like acne. I'm considering whether to wait 3-6 months to hit my natural limits first or begin my cycle now. I probably hit my natural limits one year ago naturally but my physique deteriorated a decent amount from last year.
I’m focusing on extracting maximum gains from lower dosages for long-term progress and side effect management. My goal is to look like an advanced classic physique competitor within a year or two or realistically as fast as possible while ensuring safety and long term happiness. I'm also wondering if muscle memory will help me regain my past size more quickly and whether it's worth delaying the cycle for a few months of natural progress. I'm working 70 hours a week now but plan to quit to focus on bodybuilding. Any advice on this approach would be helpful.
I’m educated on diet, training, drugs, and use to be a moderator on another forum a decade ago lol. Honestly I know this protocol seems weird, but I have to ensure I can control any acne that occurs, and the whole genetic peak thing I may be overthinking.

. I will start a log soon and get good pictures, I was in really great shape about one year ago. Right now it’s been a tough year trying to get back in shape working around 65 hours a week. I just hit this point where I realized I never see friends, have only been able to work out a couple times a week, and that I just want to try to live life and be happy again.
